AEO — get found when guests ask the AI.
AI Optimization tunes your brand to show up inside ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews — the new front door for "where should I eat, stay, or camp?"
Illustrative industry figures — we'll benchmark your real AI visibility on the audit.
Search is splitting in two — and AI is winning discovery.
Your future guests increasingly ask an assistant to plan the trip, pick the restaurant, or find a campground — and it answers with a short list of names. If yours isn't on it, you never enter the consideration set.
AEO is how you earn a place in those answers — the same way SEO once earned you a place on page one. The brands that move first will be the defaults their competitors get compared against.
Four moves that get you cited.
AI visibility audit
We test how ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews currently answer the questions your guests ask — and where you, and your competitors, show up.
Structured content & schema
We make your menus, amenities, hours, rates, and locations machine-readable so AI can confidently pull and cite the facts that matter.
Entity authority building
AI trusts brands it sees corroborated across the web. We strengthen the signals — directories, reviews, mentions — that establish you as a real, credible entity.
Citation & answer strategy
We shape the content AI quotes — FAQs, comparisons, and local guides written to be the answer, not just to rank for it.
It doesn't replace SEO. It's the next layer on top.

No — it builds on SEO but optimizes for a different surface. SEO earns a ranking among links; AEO earns a citation inside an AI-generated answer. The signals overlap (clean structure, authority) but the tactics and the measurement differ.
We track how often your brand is named and cited across a defined set of guest prompts in ChatGPT, Perplexity, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews — benchmarked at the start and re-tested on a cadence.
Strong SEO gives you a head start, because clean, authoritative content is exactly what AI prefers to cite. But ranking #1 on Google does not guarantee you appear in an AI answer — that has to be earned separately.
Any hospitality brand where guests research before they commit — restaurants, RV resorts, hotels, and multi-location groups. The earlier you move, the more you become the default the assistant recommends.
Yes — it pairs naturally with SEO, content, and local. Most clients add AEO onto an existing program rather than running it in isolation.
